I always seem to a video that appears in the “Continue Watching” section that I’ve already finished watching and is marked as “watched”. The videos in question are videos that I have maybe paused in the pasted and picked up a later time to finish but they have definitely been watched completely. Every time I manually toggle the watched status (unwatched to watched again), the video will disappear but reappear next time I start the app.
Is this some sort of bug or is there a reason why it keeps appearing?
I had this happen to one video. I removed it from my library for a few days, maybe a week, and put it back in to fix the problem. That was before I knew about the Plex Dance™… which is probably the better solution. What I was doing was taking the long way around.
Long story short, it’s a database glitch that I’ve only experienced once, that ties itself to that specific file. I believe the watch history part of the database exists apart from the list of files database. Removing the file still leaves the watch history for it in the database… so putting it back in right away just re-establishes the link between the two.
I recommend trying the Plex Dance™ procedure first. If that doesn’t work. Take the errant files out for a week and then put them back in.
